DCOM wince - are you a little confused? Do you have an OPC client implementation for your CE? If you tell me which version of win CE, which opc server (Siemens?) maybe I can help. I use WinCE 5 (industrial controler layout) as a opc server and client but with an inhouse driver. Another question: Do you/your company (OEM?) build your own CE with platformbuilder? Can be difficult to bring something to a CE-Image...

Hello,
these days i am trying to connect to an OPC Server in Wince, and i programmed my OPC client in C#,and there is a method can collect to a Remote COM Server: GetTypeFromProgID. however, it can't be used in Wince becuase there is no overload method to connect to Romote Computer.so what should i do next?thanks!

hello,johannesnestler.
thank you very much for your answer.well, i am using wince 5.0, and i write my own opc client in c#(running in Wince) with visual studio 2005 to collect to the OPC Server(Matrikon.OPC.Simulation.1) which is running in XP.and we can build my own Wince-Image with PB, maybe it's not so difficult to bring something to the CE-Image.
this is my situation. many thanks!

Hi congpchen,

The good news is you have PB - So first I would start adding the dcomcnfg (and regsvrCE, ntlmuser) to your image. After that you should be able to configure it. For me this is theoretical (because I have a proxy dll and just register it). Did you have a look at this article on CP? http://www.codeproject.com/KB/windows/WindowsCE_DCOM.aspx - I'd try this, if you got stuck you can ask me again.

Hi,johannesnestler,

i have read the article you mentioned before, this is a quite good article. and i have added DCOM before building the Image.however, i can't find the DCOMCNFG and RegsvrCE.exe in wince, i don't know why. if possible, please send me some picture about how to finish this step,thanks!
